Wind And Waves

Santa Fe, New Mexico….feeling like a queen!

Pulling out of Santa Fe I felt euphoric I had found a place near the plaza to stash my motorcyle.  Always easy to find a parking spot for the moto.  I did a quick change (hoping no one saw me but if they did, oh well) from my heavy dark moto gear into a sporty red skirt I had found at a boutique, the artist sold it to me for super cheap, my favorite plain black tank top and my trusty flip flops I keep in my tank bag.  After a hot sweaty long ride I felt light as a flower.  I left everything on my bike. With a quick prayer to the universe, “Please no one steal my stuff, universe.” I trotted off, half skipping because I felt so light and free and excited to see what was ahead. People everywhere as I got close. I love the orange adobe structures with the dark wood beams. Peoples outfits would have kept me entertained for hours. Colors so many colors and boots, of all sizes. Quality leather, quality stitching, skirts, scarfs….and then in the stores handmade, wallets, wooden coat hangars, necklace holders.  Beautiful! People have taken such care and made such beautiful things.

Hungry, food to choose, fresh baked artisan bread, salads with things I didn’t even know existed, so delicious so colorful so satisfying. So creative. Such abundance.

I walked into a leather store and fell in love with a beautiful leather cowboy hat . I loved the stitching, loved the color, [Read more →]

Off to the Southwest to soak up the sun, but first…….I have to make it over the FREEZING continental divide! I stopped at McDonalds to warm up my hands because I couldn’t move them. The way my fingers turn white so quickly…..you would think I was a mountaineer. Nope. Motorcycling! Need to find me a pair of heated gloves, or grips or something. It is Soooo Cold!

But, as I knew I would be…..I was soon rewarded by warmth and red rocks! Entering the Moab land, was a dream!

Yeeeeeeeeeehaaa!!

Maybe I could try this someday…..???  THis is how I felt this weekend! YIPPEEEE!!! there is nothing I rather be doing 🙂

A Beautiful weekend spent zooming all through the colorado mountains,  at the motorcycle shop, absorbing the scene, by the river reading, by the river talking and drinking margaritas, on a patio with a live band, drinking margaritas, latin dance party drinking lemonade!! Life is good 🙂

My Favorite motorcycle run when I lived in Moab. River Road!

Sunrise!  So exciting getting out of bed every morning to the orange sun rising, contrasted against white.

Here is the lovely logistics team!

Check out the suburban sprawl……its like a fingering monster coming to take over the mountains! Nooo!

I am continually inspired by everyone’s creativity!!
